[Sticky] THE NEW FORUM - WHY?
Short explanation - the old forum was FUBAR 😖 - literally dated/no fix/solution available despite hours of trying to fix it. You can still read the old forum and nothing is lost - it's there etched in history and you can always go back to it for reference but I encourage you now to embrace THIS forum and use it freely! I spent hours, days, weeks, and months trying hard to save it but alas. Now we have this new one and it works - emojis, pictures, links, quotes etc - it all functions. PLUS all the groups/rooms and headings are still in place. If you feel the need you can go back and copy and paste content but let's look forward - feet n knees together, brace, brace, brace!! We are green on for a new start! May the winds be in your favour, your landing soft and your beer be cold x 🍻
Hi Annie, bit of a struggle trying to register for the new site, but eventually managed to use my old user name and password. us old geezers struggle with technology but eventually I have no doubt we will see them all manage to transfer over. Thank you for all your hard work in trying to rectify the old site and setting this one up!
Just remembered I am fully paid up, as I pay by direct Debit, hope this helps.
@bob9739 You are very welcome Bob. I am sorry I wasn't able to come up with a solution for the existing forum but this one seems to be doing OK so far! 🤗
Well thanks for trying Annie and your efforts on the old site 🤠
Yes the old saying Rome wasn't built in a day springs to mind, Well done everyone involved in getting this site up and running! 👍
HI all - Don the Mod (also my boss) has asked me to make some changes to the font and background colours. I have also updated the POSTS and the Fandance and 10 miler dates for 2025.
I welcome feedback.
Thanks for all your efforts Annie it is much appreciated, and it is certainly good to see the back end of black background! 😀 👍
I'll second that - thanks Annie
There's something wrong there Annie 🤔Posted by: @annie70HI all - Don the Mod (also my boss) has asked me to make some changes to the font and background colours. I have also updated the POSTS and the Fandance and 10 miler dates for 2025.
I welcome feedback.
@taff What is wrong - please reference page, issue and description
Don being your boss 🤔 it should be the other way around Annie 🙃🟦
@taff Oh I see - sorry - I lost my sense of humour for a moment - but its ok-I've found it now!
And so so glad you are all enjoying the forum - gotta dash now - wouldn't want the boss to think I'm slacking hey @don?
🤣 🤣 🤣 He needs a carer Annie..
So good to be back with our Forum lay out, I think it needs to be brought to the attention of members at the next AGM and published on our FB page that all people have to do is re-apply on this home page and Don will give you the clearance and a chance to save new log in details 😉 😊
